Corrosion behaviors of Mg and its alloys with different Al contents in a modified simulated body fluid

Effect of hot-deformation on microstructure and mechanical properties of AZ80 magnesium alloy

“…The discrete β phase nucleated either at the grain boundaries or the boundaries of sub-grains, which were produced in the residual coarse grains, and grew into the grains in a particular orientation. Similar lamellar β phase was also reported by other researchers [18][19][20][21][22].…”

Calcium orthophosphates (CaPO 4 ): Occurrence and properties

“…However, it contains Hepes buffer, loses CO 2 in open vessels and does not contain any organic and/or biological molecules (Kim et al 2001;Oyane et al 2003). Other types of SBF are also available (Müller and Müller 2006;Hu et al 2006;Wen et al 2009;Gemelli et al 2010) and the interested readers are referred to a leading opinion co-authored by the SBF inventor (Kokubo and Takadama 2006), where the entire history and the preparation techniques of various SBF formulations are well described. Later, another leading opinion on the suitability of SBF for the in vitro bioactivity tests was published (Bohner and Lemaitre 2009).…”

Effect of heat treatment on the microstructures and damping properties of biomedical Mg–Zr alloy

“…Dong et al [7] have reported that upon the addition of 7 wt% Y, the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of the Mg-7Li alloy become 120% and 152% of those of the as-cast Mg-7Li alloy, respectively. Moreover, addition of alloying elements such as Al and rare-earth elements such as Nd, Re, and Pr to Mg-based alloys results in grain refinement, grain boundary strengthening, and solid-solution strengthening [8][9][10][11] and a consequent improvement of the corrosion resistance of the alloys. Such improved Mg-based alloys can be used for manufacturing aerospace components, automobile parts, electronic goods, and sports goods [12,13].…”
